(Copied and authenticated by the Reverend Mathew Clark, Presbyterian / Minister of Stoneykirk, in Wigtownshire)
Maister Fothergill West and the meenister say that I maun tell all I can / aboot General Heatherstone and his hoose, but that I maunna say muckle / aboot mysel' because the readers wouldna care to hear aboot me or my / affairs. I am na sae sure o' that, for the Stakes is a family weel / kenned and respecked on baith sides o' the Border, and there's mony in / Nithsdale and Annandale as would be gey pleased to hear news o' the son / o' Archie Stakes, o' Ecclefechan.
